Hello fellow growers, I am pleased to start this new journey with you. I am also particularly excited since I am going to grow a Mephisto Genetics strain for the very first time, the famous Double Grape. I know you shouldn't believe the hype, as Public Enemy used to say, but it's hard to ignore the dithyrambic reviews when it comes to Mephisto. I sowed the seed directly in the substrate and it was popping out 3 days later. Right now the seedling is under my Mars Hydro TS1000, brightness set at 25%, lights are 80cm away. During my last grows I set it up to the max at all stages of growth, this time I decided to proceed differently and increase gradually. Please let me know in the comments if you think I should just push it to the max right away. I would like to thank HESI nutrients team for sending me a great Starter Pack! Shout out to Hesi_Official, can't wait to test your products! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for weekly updates! 😎

Hello folks 😎 7th week of flowering and the heat is still here πŸ˜”I hope to have cooler temperatures quickly, otherwise, the drying phase will be complicated... Because of that, I noticed the beginning of a little foxtailing on some buds ! but nothing serious At the beginning of this week, I gave them their last watering with nutrients ( about 520 ppm ) and in the middle of the week, I started the flush πŸ‘Œ For the trichomes, many are milky but there is still time left 😊 Good news, I will completely change my tent and my equipment for the next crop, bigger tent, better light etc. ( soon ℒ️) But that's another story ! 😁 Anyway Stay tuned and see you next week guys 😘 I also have another diary with one Pineapple kush from RQS if you want to see Peace Love & Weed GD FamπŸ˜πŸ‘Š

πŸ₯’ Project Blue Tent – Week 8 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno B (Folder 14B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! πŸ’™πŸŒ± If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome aboard! Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants from seed all the way through harvest, with each phenotype receiving her own dedicated diary. All four sisters share the same tent, lighting, irrigation, nutrition, environmental conditions and overall training strategy. The idea is simple: Keep the variables as consistent as possible and let the genetics tell the story. And this week... The story is getting very interesting. Because all four girls have entered flowering with absolutely no intention of slowing down. Today we're giving the spotlight to Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B. And once again... She's shining. πŸ’™πŸŒ± ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – Flower Has Arrived The Blue Tent has officially entered the next chapter. After seven full weeks of vegetation, we're now running 12/12, and the response from the plants has been immediate. Plant B is now sitting around 81 cm, compared with approximately 60 cm when we finished the vegetative phase. That's a serious amount of growth in a very short period. And what's particularly impressive is that the plants aren't simply stretching upward. They're developing everywhere. The branches are extending. New growth is appearing rapidly. Flowering sites are becoming more obvious every day. And the first real signs of bud development are now beautifully visible throughout Plant B's structure. This is the point where all those weeks of preparation start becoming meaningful. The SCROG gave us the structure. The defoliation opened the canopy. The training created the framework. And now... Flowering is filling that framework. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant B Plant B continues to be one of those girls that makes me stop and look twice. Her foliage is lush, vibrant and beautifully green, and the overall health of the plant is exactly where I want it to be. The developing flowers are progressing quickly, with fresh pistils and new growth appearing throughout the canopy. And despite the speed at which she's developing, she's still maintaining a remarkably even structure. That's something I really appreciate about this phenotype. She has always been a cooperative plant. She responds well to training. She builds strong lateral growth. And even now, with flowering underway and the stretch accelerating, she's still giving us a canopy that is relatively easy to manage. At least... As easy as four extremely vigorous plants can be. πŸ˜‚ ──────────────────────── πŸ’₯ Super Cropping – Keeping the Canopy Under Control The biggest challenge right now isn't getting these girls to grow. They've already made that part very clear. The challenge is managing how quickly they're growing. We're continuing to use super cropping on selected branches as another tool for managing the most vigorous vertical growth. The idea is to reduce the dominance of certain shoots, redistribute growth and encourage stronger branching points as the plants continue developing. And these girls are making me work for it. I'll carefully work a branch down... Come back later... And somehow it's already standing back up again. πŸ˜‚πŸŒ± They're determined. But that's actually what makes this stage so interesting. We're not trying to stop their natural growth. We're trying to work with it. The canopy is already very even, and we're simply making small interventions where necessary to keep the most aggressive growth from getting too far ahead. Whether we'll successfully keep everybody compact throughout the stretch? Well... Let's see. They certainly haven't read that part of the plan. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Bud Formation – Things Are Moving Quickly One of the most exciting changes this week is the speed of flower development. We're only at the beginning of flowering, yet Plant B is already showing beautiful formation throughout the canopy. The sites we've spent weeks creating and positioning are now beginning to transform. Pistils are appearing. Clusters are becoming more defined. And every day there's another little sign that tells me: We're properly in flower now. This is one of those moments where you can finally see the purpose behind all the earlier work. The individual branches aren't just branches anymore. They're becoming future flowers. And Plant B has plenty of them. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Seven Weeks of Vegetation – Was It Too Much? Looking at Plant B now, I'm still wondering whether I gave these girls too much vegetative time. Seven weeks of vegetation is considerably longer than I normally run. Usually, I'd flip earlier. But the extra time gave us something valuable: A very established canopy. Strong branches. A developed root system. And a structure capable of supporting a lot of flowering growth. The downside is becoming very obvious now. These plants have an incredible amount of momentum. They grew from roughly 60 cm to around 81 cm incredibly quickly, and they're still moving. So there is definitely a little bit of: "What have I created?" πŸ˜‚ happening in the grow room right now. But worrying about it isn't going to make the plants grow slower. We've prepared them. We've trained them. We've opened the canopy. We're managing the stretch. Now we watch. And we see where these girls want to take us. ──────────────────────── πŸ’‘ Strong Light From the Beginning The transition into flowering also means we're starting with approximately 800 PPFD across the canopy. I want these girls to have strong light available from the beginning of flower rather than slowly creeping toward higher intensity. They're already extremely vigorous, so the idea is to give them the photons they need while closely observing how the canopy responds. The challenge is balancing that strong light with the environmental conditions and the very significant stretch we're already seeing. I'm particularly interested in seeing whether the combination of strong light and continued canopy management can help keep the plants from becoming excessively elongated. Because if there's one thing Plant B has demonstrated this week... It's that she has absolutely no shortage of energy. ──────────────────────── 🌑️ Blue Tent Environment The room continues to run with remarkably consistent conditions across all four sisters. This week's recorded averages were: β€’ 🌑️ Day Temperature: 27Β°C β€’ πŸŒ™ Night Temperature: 27Β°C β€’ πŸ’§ Relative Humidity: 67% β€’ πŸ₯₯ Substrate Temperature: 24Β°C β€’ πŸ’¦ Nutrient Solution: 19.1Β°C β€’ βš—οΈ pH: 5.81 β€’ ⚑ EC: 2.09 mS/cm β€’ πŸ’¨ COβ‚‚: approximately 666 ppm β€’ πŸ’‘ Light Schedule: 12/12 β€’ πŸ’§ Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h β€’ ? Pot Size: 8 L β€’ πŸ“ Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing that continues to stand out is the relatively small difference between day and night temperatures. We're sitting around 27Β°C for both. That can contribute to continued stretching, and considering how quickly these girls are already growing, it's something I'm keeping firmly in mind. But for now, Plant B is responding beautifully. Healthy foliage. Strong development. Rapid flower formation. And no obvious signs that she's unhappy with her environment. ──────────────────────── πŸ₯₯ Feeding – Supporting the Transition The flowering nutrition is now established. Current feeding: β€’ Plagron Hydro A β€” 2 ml/L β€’ Plagron Hydro B β€” 2 ml/L β€’ Plagron Hydro Roots β€” 1 ml/L β€’ Plagron Power Buds β€” 1 ml/L β€’ pH Plus β€” 0.03 ml/L β€’ pH Min β€” 0.03 ml/L Current EC: 2.09 mS/cm pH: 5.81 The plants are consuming aggressively and developing extremely quickly, so the nutritional strategy is now supporting that transition without making unnecessary changes simply for the sake of changing something. Plant B's colour is exactly what I want to see. That beautiful, lush green foliage is telling me that she's handling the current program very well. And when I look at the flowering sites developing throughout the canopy... I'm certainly not seeing a plant asking me to interfere. So for now: We stay consistent. Observe. Measure. Adjust only when necessary. ──────────────────────── πŸ’§ The Drip & Drainage System – One Continuous Loop The automatic irrigation and drainage setup has become one of my favourite parts of this project. Plant B is now receiving approximately 1.4 litres of nutrient solution every 24 hours through the drip irrigation system. The process is beautifully simple. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution directly to the coco. The solution passes through the substrate and feeds the root zone. The resulting runoff drains into the collection trays underneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage pipe carries the water toward the pump. The pump removes the collected runoff and returns it toward the reservoir, creating a recirculating irrigation and drainage loop. Water goes in. The plants use what they need. Runoff is collected. The pump moves it away. And the system continues its cycle. It's a remarkably elegant setup when everything is working properly. And right now... It is working wonderfully. The plants are growing rapidly, their water demand is increasing, and the system is keeping irrigation consistent without requiring me to manually water four increasingly thirsty plants every day. That consistency is especially valuable in a project where we're deliberately trying to keep the four sisters under comparable conditions. It's another variable we can keep controlled while we watch the genetics express themselves. ──────────────────────── πŸ•ΈοΈ Managing the Canopy During the Stretch The SCROG has already done its main job. Now we're using the structure we've created to manage flowering growth. The canopy remains impressively even. There are no huge dominant towers completely taking over the room. Instead, the flowering sites are distributed across the surface we've spent weeks building. But the stretch is happening quickly. So we're continuing to watch the taller shoots and selectively using training and super cropping where necessary. This isn't about constantly manipulating the plant. It's about making small corrections before a branch becomes a major problem. A little intervention now can be much easier than trying to fix an overly dominant branch later. And Plant B has responded very well so far. She's stretching... But she's stretching into a structure. That's exactly what I wanted. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B's Personality Is Still There This is one of my favourite things about Project Blue Tent. From above, the four sisters can look almost identical. Same tent. Same lights. Same irrigation. Same nutrients. Same environment. And yet... Spend enough time with them and their personalities start becoming obvious. Plant B remains one of the more naturally cooperative phenotypes. She's vigorous, but her structure remains usable. She's growing rapidly, but the canopy hasn't become chaotic. She's producing flowering sites quickly, while maintaining that beautiful green foliage we've been watching since vegetation. And now she's showing another characteristic: She doesn't seem particularly interested in slowing down. πŸ˜‚πŸŒ± Which, honestly, is a pretty good problem to have. ──────────────────────── 🌸 From Canopy to Flowers There is something incredibly satisfying about looking at Plant B now and remembering what she looked like only a few weeks ago. Back then, we were talking about: Topping. SCROG. Empty squares. Branch positioning. Defoliation. Canopy management. Now we're talking about: Flowering sites. Pistils. Stretch. Bud formation. And eventually... Bulk. That's the transition we've been working toward. The plant has moved from building the machine to using the machine. The canopy is the foundation. Now the flowers get to take over the story. ──────────────────────── πŸ‘€ Looking Ahead The next couple of weeks should be fascinating. All four sisters are moving incredibly quickly, and Plant B is right there with them. We'll continue managing the canopy as needed. We'll keep an eye on the stretch. Super cropping will remain one of the tools available when individual branches get too ambitious. The irrigation system will continue providing its consistent cycle. The flowering nutrition will continue supporting development. And the environmental conditions will remain under close observation. Most importantly... We don't need to panic about the speed. Yes, they're growing fast. Yes, I may have kept them in vegetation longer than usual. Yes, the warm nights aren't exactly helping us keep the stretch compact. But the plants are healthy. The canopy is remarkably even. The flowers are forming beautifully. And Plant B is looking absolutely fantastic. So... Let's see where this goes. πŸŒΈπŸ’™ ──────────────────────── πŸ’™ Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics phenotype by phenotype. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout their journey and now through the beginning of flowering. A special thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting helping us create such a strong, even canopy and now providing the intensity we're using during the transition into flower. And a massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system. Watching the drippers, coco, runoff collection, drainage lines, pump and reservoir work together has been incredibly satisfying. The system has become an important part of keeping the entire room consistent. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for providing a place where growers from around the world can document their journeys, exchange experiences and learn together. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. πŸ’™ Plant B has officially entered flowering. She's stretching. She's building flowers. She's producing lush, beautiful growth. And she's making it very clear that seven weeks of vegetation gave her plenty of momentum. πŸ˜‚πŸŒ± For now, the canopy remains beautifully even. The flowers are developing quickly. The super cropping is helping us manage the most ambitious branches. The irrigation system is doing its job. The nutrition is supporting the transition. And Plant B... Well... She's simply shining. Four sisters. One environment. One experiment. And four plants that somehow manage to make every week more interesting. Let's see what the next chapter brings. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! πŸŒ±πŸ’™

Week 5 Update: Challenges and Optimism! 🌿πŸ’ͺ✨ Hey there, fellow growers! πŸ‘‹πŸŒ± As we dive into the fifth week of this thrilling journey, I must admit that I've encountered a few obstacles along the way. But fear not, for challenges are merely opportunities in disguise! πŸŒ±πŸš€ Currently, three of my plants are still looking a bit droopy, a consequence of my underfeeding mishap. πŸ˜” However, I've taken decisive action to rectify the situation. I've increased their water intake from 0.5 liters each to a generous 1 liter each, provided every two days. Hydration is key! πŸ’§πŸ’¦ Let's talk environmental conditions. The temperature within the grow space ranges between 20Β°C and 22Β°C, maintaining a comfortable and optimal range for our leafy companions. The humidity levels hover around 60% to 68%, thanks to the diligent work of my trusty dehumidifier. Kudos to technology! πŸŒ‘οΈπŸ’¨πŸ’¨ In light of the recent droopiness, I've temporarily adjusted the LED power to 75%. It's a careful balancing act to ensure the plants receive the right amount of light without overwhelming them. We're all about finding that sweet spot! πŸ’‘πŸŒΏβœ¨ Interestingly, I've noticed a similar issue with droopiness during my previous grow with sour stompers. Could it be a recurring pattern? πŸ€” Moreover, upon activating the dehumidifier, I made an intriguing discovery. The CO2 levels have soared over 900ppm! It seems I've stumbled upon an unexpected correlation. I'll certainly be investigating this further to unravel the mystery. Science at work! πŸ”¬πŸŒΏπŸ” Well, my fellow enthusiasts, that wraps up the highlights for this week. Let's remain optimistic as we eagerly await our plants' recovery and resurgence. I have faith that they will bounce back stronger than ever, for nature has a remarkable ability to rejuvenate. πŸŒΏπŸŒ±πŸ’š Remember, challenges are but stepping stones on the path to growth. Embrace them, learn from them, and continue nurturing your green wonders with love and care. Together, we shall conquer any hurdle that comes our way! 😜πŸ’ͺ🌿🌟 Wishing you all an incredible week of growth and exploration. Happy growing, lads! πŸŒ±πŸŒΏβœ¨πŸ˜„

Getting close!! Chopped a bunch of used up leaves off, took some microscope shots yesterday, got a boom arm coming so I don't have to rely on my steady hand for the microscope shots but still looks cloudy/clear w/o an amber to be seen when looking at the trichomes as of Monday. Pistils are still mostly white but rapidly advancing. Fastbuds advertises a chop day between 63 and 70 so we're in the window and heading in the right direction. A chop before the end of the week is possible.

The purple/pink/orange hues from the strawberry cough is solid forming into decent size nugs. Those huge colas are a sexy sight to watch however the tendency for mould attack is high for those strawberry. Hoping my fan, air circulation, and humidity will stop those mould from coming. Also i am turning up my AC to 20hours when it is day 90 onwards, using panasonic nano AC to clear up any pollutants from entering the tent. There is a purple punch indica dominant hiding under those autoflowers i know it is hard to spot them, will keep those purple punch longer in flowering since they are bullied by 2 monstrous autos. Feeding them with just 3.5L water+feed. 2.5 litres of water and 1 litre of feed. I feed them 1L on Sundays, and on friday i water them with 2.5L of water, by doing this, my humidity remains within 55%max and 38% minimum when the pot dries.

I will be focusing this diary on the smoothie strain but you’ll be seeing some other plants in the tent that are not the same strain. I only have room in this tent so bare with me. There are 2 Smoothie, 1 CNC, and 1 Stardawg (dog). The smoothie are the two bigger ones in the back of the tent. Now, the Smoothie from FastBuds is just killin it right now. Since I popped the beans they have done nothing but show signs of greatness. I don’t think this one is gonna slow down much either. I’m going to push these plants harder than my last harvest. I had a really really amazing harvest last time. I was even able to pull sap out of all 4 plants. 2 Zkittles and 2 LSD-25. This was all done by feeding at the right times and keeping a β€œmoist” soil. Also I want add that I ran pretty much the entire line of Nectar for the Gods at a little less then the recommended ratios. This time I plan on going a tiny bit over the recommended ratios just to see what these plants will do. Trust me, if the plants have a bad response I will go back to the recommended ratios. The reason I want to do this is because I really think these auto strains can handle a lot more than a regular flowering cycle plant would. They can handle more stress, that’s for sure. When do you think I should add a compost tea into my regimen? Soon or wait till the plant is a little larger?

One Love Growers! πŸ‡―πŸ‡²βœŒοΈ Let's Get This Veg Phase Rolling! 16.11.2025-Our little warriors are officially done messing aroundβ€”we’re moving into the full vegetative stage! Getting them into the final big living soil pot is like moving them into their permanent home; it’s a big deal. We are transplanting them into soil that was mixed and treated fourteen days before with my own blend of soils, earthworms, springtails, and dried crushed eggshells + 400g of Herbis living soil starter. 24.11.2025- QUICK UPDATE: GROWTH SPURT! The girls clearly love their new home! They've started to accelerate their growth noticeably, which tells me the Living Soil is totally dialed in. Because they are growing so fast, I'm going to increase their watering volume starting in Week 3 to keep up with their demands. It's all up to the soil and worms now. Remember: with Living Soil, we feed the soil, and the soil feeds the plants! Happy soiΔΊ=Happy plants Fingers crossed for rapid root development! Week 3 of vegetation begins tomorrow, so expect that new photos coming. Peace and Harmony! πŸ’š Wondrej

I'm lil a bit late with update. Yesterday was begining of the week 6 so i in few days i will added new photos. The thing is that i have some problem with hps power supply and i cant switch off lights because if i will do it its chance that they doesnt work anymore and then i will stay without lights. Sooo im in very very big sh... πŸ€ͺ Thats why i'm sorry sisters and brothers for the quality of the photos but with those power supply my phone camera go craaazy. Like me at this moment 🀣🀣 And i dont know what should i do to fix it. Any ideas? The Bruce Banner is the most beautiful plant of this room for now. She will be really hugee auto.

Nothing to exciting this week, plants are doing well. Little bit of stretching going on and starting to smell more and more now. The newer growth is a bit lighter in shades of green then the old stuff. I think this is from me dividing the flowering nutrients into 4 weeks vs all at once as they tend to get a bit of N tox when I give it all at once so this seems to be doing better. Clones are same old, just waiting for the weather to get nice. Found out that when I use Insect Frass as a fertilizer it's also adding in chitin "a protein found in bugs, crustaceans and fungi" to the soil, when that stuff breaks down it makes chitosan and that can help boost defences against pests and virus in the plant. There are plant additives out their that are pure chitosan in varying concentrations and they use this to make the buds extra frosty. To much can harm the plant though. I also found out I needed to water them a bit more then normal not that the stretch is happening. so they got 6L this week each vs the regular 4L but it was split up in 3 days. In the first bit they got all the additives i normally do and the other bit was just PH'd water, didn't want to over load em. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.

18.06 A way more late update of this grow as I usually provide for two reasons - first I didn't had any time to control or keep care of this grow during the last weekend, second: due to the first point I run into a problem I needed to identify before I update my journal. As you can see in the video there is one plant with some kind of brown leave tips and yellow sugar leaves. I am not 100% sure why this happened but I think it could be some kind of wind burn. I didn't noticed that one slot of my power strips wasn't working anymore, this slot was turning on and off some fans. So the fans just blow straight at least for two days in a row against the plants. Beside that I raised the speed of my main fan a bit a week ago and the plant that is the nearest to this fan show the signs on the leaves I notice here. So I fixed the fans and observed the plants a bit more in detail the last days. The problem didn't developed further so I think this is fine now. There can also be some other reasons, as I wrote last week I changed a bit my nutrient scheme but since I wasn't above EC 2 at all I am not really comfortable with this theorie. Anyway, I closed the tank from sunday to monday so the plants just had what was left in the autopot system and used that until the next light schedule. Afterwards I changed my nutrient scheme back to the classic Hesi scheme. The plants are really well, the trichomes are still clear so I think we have at least until 3 weeks to harvest. The plants will become next week full scheme, afterwards I will check the trichomes again and decide if I start to reduce the scheme or not as we come closer to the harvest.
